Findings of Drug Abuse Research, 1 FINDINGS OF DRUG ABUSE RESEARCH An annotated bibliography of NIMH and NIDA-supported extramural grant research 1967-74 in two volumes Volume 1 July 1975 National Institute on Drug Abuse 11400 Rockville Pike Rockville, Maryland 20852 The NIDA Research Monograph Services is property by the Division of Research of the National Institute on Drug Abuse. Its primary objective is to provide critical reviews of research problem areas and techniques, the content of state-of-the-art conferences, integrative research reviews and significant original research. Its dual publication emphasis is rapid and targeted dissemination to the scientific and professional community.

Petersen, Ph.D. EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Eunice L. Corfman, M.A. EDITOR Rockwall Building 11400 Rockville Pike Rockville, Maryland, 20852 PREFACE Nearly eight years have elapsed since the inauguration of a high priority Federal research program directed toward better understanding and coping with drug abuse. When that program was begun, estimates of the extent of drug abuse were more frequently based on speculation than on hard data. The basic materials for studying such drugs as marihuana were frequently lacking and research was in its infancy. Opiate research, while it had a much longer history through pioneering work of the Addiction Research Center, the U.S. Public Health Hospitals at Lexington and Fort Worth a and other programs, also underwent a much needed expansion. The research infant has now become a strapping adolescent. While much remains to be learned, this bibliography comprising some 3,500 titles and abstracts attests to the productivity of over 650 researchers whose work was directly supported through grants from the National Institute on Drug Abuse and its predecessor program in the National Institute of Mental Health. Its publication represents an attempt to give some sense of the diversity and scope of the Federal impact on drug abuse research. It is our hope that it will prove to be a valuable source of scientific information in itself and will also serve as a source document for later analysis of the Federal role in its extramural grant program towards shaping and contributing to the overall drug abuse literature. Preparation of these volumes inevitably leaves us indebted to many individuals and organizations. First and foremost, special thanks are owed to the hundreds of researchers who took time from their busy schedules to give us detailed accounting of the papers they have published arising from our grant support. Without their generous cooperation a reasonably complete account- ing would not have been possible. Thanks are also due to the staffs of some twenty libraries, information services and clearinghouses which provided assistance in many ways. The actual production of the volumes demands thanks to many individuals whose commitment to the detailed preparation required testifies to their fine level of professionalism. Special thanks are due to the staff of Koba Associates, Inc., particularly to Georgette Semick, the project director, ably assisted by Carol Tuckerman and to their research assistants Tina Lindegren and Kath Nesper. Susan Lachter, Acting Chief of the National Clearinghouse for Drug Abuse Information here at NIDA provided necessary assistance as did other members of the NIDA staff. Robert C.

  • Blockade of Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors Facilitates Motivated Behaviour and Rescues a Model of Antipsychotic- Induced Amotivation
    www.nature.com/npp ARTICLE Blockade of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors facilitates motivated behaviour and rescues a model of antipsychotic- induced amotivation Jonathan M. Hailwood 1, Christopher J. Heath2, Benjamin U. Phillips1, Trevor W. Robbins1, Lisa M. Saksida3,4 and Timothy J. Bussey1,3,4 Disruptions to motivated behaviour are a highly prevalent and severe symptom in a number of neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. Current treatment options for these disorders have little or no effect upon motivational impairments. We assessed the contribution of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors to motivated behaviour in mice, as a novel pharmacological target for motivational impairments. Touchscreen progressive ratio (PR) performance was facilitated by the nonselective muscarinic receptor antagonist scopolamine as well as the more subtype-selective antagonists biperiden (M1) and tropicamide (M4). However, scopolamine and tropicamide also produced increases in non-specific activity levels, whereas biperiden did not. A series of control tests suggests the effects of the mAChR antagonists were sensitive to changes in reward value and not driven by changes in satiety, motor fatigue, appetite or perseveration. Subsequently, a sub-effective dose of biperiden was able to facilitate the effects of amphetamine upon PR performance, suggesting an ability to enhance dopaminergic function. Both biperiden and scopolamine were also able to reverse a haloperidol-induced deficit in PR performance, however only biperiden was able to rescue the deficit in effort-related choice (ERC) performance. Taken together, these data suggest that the M1 mAChR may be a novel target for the pharmacological enhancement of effort exertion and consequent rescue of motivational impairments. Conversely, M4 receptors may inadvertently modulate effort exertion through regulation of general locomotor activity levels.

In particular, constituents in the medicinal plant extracts may influence drug bioavailability, metabolism and half-life, leading to drug toxicity or failure to obtain a therapeutic response. This narrative review focuses on clinical studies improving knowledge on the ability of selected herbal medicines to influence the pharmacokinetics of co-administered drugs. Moreover, in vitro studies are useful to anticipate potential herbal medicine-drug interactions.

  • The Influence of a Muscarinic M1 Receptor Antagonist on Brain Choline Levels in Patients with a Psychotic Disorder and Healthy Controls
    MHENS School for Mental Health and Neuroscience The influence of a muscarinic M1 receptor antagonist on brain choline levels in patients with a psychotic disorder and healthy controls. W.A.M.

C GGZ Centraal, Center for Mental Health Care, Hilversum, The Netherlands D Department of Radiology, Academic Medical Center, Amsterdam, The Netherlands Background • The majority of the patients with a psychotic disorder report cognitive impairments in addition to positive and negative symptoms. • It is well known that the neurotransmitter acetylcholine plays an important role in cognition. • A post-mortem study of chronic schizophrenia patients demonstrated a reduction of up to 75% in the number of the acetylcholine muscarinic M1 receptors (1). • Research has shown that muscarinic cholinergic receptors play a major role in cognitive processes. Objective • To investigate in-vivo whether there are differences in baseline choline levels in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and striatum between recent onset medication-free patients with a psychotic disorder and healthy control subjects. • To investigate in-vivo the influence of a muscarinic antagonist on choline levels in the ACC and striatum in recent onset medication-free patients with Figure 2. Example of a striatal spectrum. a psychotic disorder and healthy control subjects. Results Methods • No significant differences were found in baseline choline levels between the two groups in both the striatum (p=0.336) and the ACC (p=0.479).

  • Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor
    mAChR Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor mAChRs (muscarinic acetylcholine receptors) are acetylcholine receptors that form G protein-receptor complexes in the cell membranes of certainneurons and other cells. They play several roles, including acting as the main end-receptor stimulated by acetylcholine released from postganglionic fibersin the parasympathetic nervous system. mAChRs are named as such because they are more sensitive to muscarine than to nicotine. Their counterparts are nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), receptor ion channels that are also important in the autonomic nervous system. Many drugs and other substances (for example pilocarpineand scopolamine) manipulate these two distinct receptors by acting as selective agonists or antagonists. Acetylcholine (ACh) is a neurotransmitter found extensively in the brain and the autonomic ganglia. www.MedChemExpress.com 1 mAChR Inhibitors & Modulators (+)-Cevimeline hydrochloride hemihydrate (-)-Cevimeline hydrochloride hemihydrate Cat.
